Imaging tests reveal area(s) of myocardial thinning or decreased contractility with no other explanation except a myocardial infarction Autopsy findings confirm healed or healing myocardial infarction tissue D. Over-utilized or "wasted" diagnostic tests associated with the evaluation of this problem. With...
Acute Myocardial Infarction (Current Topics in Cardiology.) Edited by Bernard J. Gersh and Shahbudin H. Rahimtoola. 524 pp., illustrated. New York, Elsevier, 1991. $84. In 1912 James Herrick first described coronary thrombosis as the inciting event in an acute myocardial infarction. Since tha...

COPD is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, in particular acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Besides shared risk factors, COPD-related factors, such as systemic inflammation and hypoxia, underlie the pathophysiological interaction between COPD and AMI. The prevalence of COPD amongst AMI popula...
? Ischemia at this critical threshold level for an extended time period results in irreversible myocardial cell damage or death.1-3 DEFINITION (Cntd.) ? Myocardial infarction can be subcategorized on the basis of anatomic, morphologic, and diagnostic clinical information. ? From an anatomic or ...

Abstract Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a life-threatening event. Even with timely treatment, acute ischemic myocardial injury and ensuing ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) can still be difficult issues to tackle. Apart from radiological and other auxiliary examinations, laboratory tests of applica...
The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) has been applied in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) recently.However, the application of PNI in AMI needs verification. This was a prospective cohort study. Patients diagnosed with AMI were enrolled. PNI was calcu
Diagnostic Considerations Because acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a condition with an unclear initial presentation, a substantial morbidity, and a high mortality if not properly treated, a high index of clinical suspicion should be maintained. Computed tomography (CT) angiography (CTA) should be ...
Heart failure is the prevalent complication of acute myocardial infarction. We aim to identify a biomarker for heart failure post-acute myocardial infarction. This observational study includes 1062 and 1043 patients with acute myocardial infarction in th
